Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
Closer where i Started
Chasing after you

i'm falling even more in love with you
letting go of all i've held onto
i'm standing here until you make me move
i'm hanging by a moment here with you

forgetting all i'm lacking
completely incomplete
i'll take your invitation
you take all of me

now.. i'm falling even more in love with you

If shame had a face I think it
would kind of look like mine
If it had a home would it be my eyes
Would you believe me if I said I'm tired of this
Well here we go now one more time

I tried to climb your steps
I tried to chase you down
I tried to see how low I could get it down to the ground
I tried to earn my way
I tried to tame this mind
You better believe that I tried to beat this

[CHORUS]

This doubt is screaming in my face
In this familiar place
Sheltered and concealed
And if this night won't let me rest
Don't let me second guess
What I know to be real
Put away all I know for tonight
And maybe I just might
Learn to let it go
Take my security from me
And maybe finally
I won't have to know everything

I am falling into grace
To the unknown to where you are

can't change this feeling i'm way out of touch can't change this meaning it means too much
never been this lonely never felt so good
can't be the only one misunderstood i remind myself of somebody else
feeling like i'm chasing like i'm facing myself alone
i've got somebody elses thoughts in my head i want some of my own
i want some of my own i want some of my own

Could you let down your hair be transparent for awhile
Just a little while
to see if you're human after all

Honesty is a hard attribute to find
When we all want to seem like
we've got it all figured out

Well let me be the first to say that I
don't have a clue
I don't have all the answers
ain't gonna' pretend like I do

just trying - to find my way

She's got a pretty smile it covers up the poison that she hides
She walks around in circles in my head waiting for a chance to take me a
Chance to break me a chance to take me down now i see this burden you gave me is too much to
Carry too much to bury inside i guess you're the only one that nobody changes
I guess you're the only one left standing when everything else goes down

Catch your breath hit the wall scream out loud as you start to crawl back in
Your cage the only place where they will leave you alone 'cause the weak will
Seek the weaker until they've broken them could you get it back again
Would it be the same fulfillment to their lack of strength
At your expense left you with no defense they tore it down and i have

Too many voices
It won't take long
Which one's right
Which one's wrong
Yours is most likely to be misunderstood

Screaming in tongues on the top of my lungs
'Til I find you
'Til you found me
Somehow I always knew that you would

And I am contemplating matters
All this cling and clatter
In my head, and what you said is ringing,
Ringing faster

And it's all good if you would

I'm finding my way back to sanity again
Though I don't really know what
I'm going to do when I get there
Take a breath and hold on tight
Spin around one more time
And gracefully fall back to the arms of Grace
 
I am hanging on every word you say
And even if you don't want to speak tonight
That's alright, alright with me
'Cause I want nothing more than to sit

You can be right
And I'll be real
Oh, and it still won't be a pain
That you will have to feel
Cause I don't need your approval
To find my worth

I'm trapped inside of my own mind
Afraid to open my eyes cause of what I'd find and I
Don't wanna live like this anymore

There goes my pain
There goes my chains
Did you see them falling
Because this feeling
There has no meaning

I can't be losing sleep over this, no, I can't
Now I cannot stop pacing
Give me a few hours and I'll have this all sorted out
If my mind would just stop racing

'Cause I cannot stand still
I can't be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

This is over my head but underneath my feet
'Cause by tomorrow morning I'll have this thing beat
And everything will be back to the way that it was

find me here
speak to me
i want to feel you
i need to hear you
you are the light
that is leading me
to the place where
i find peace again
you are the strength
that keeps me walking
you are the hope
that keeps me trusting
you are the life to my soul
you are my purpose
you are everything
and how can i
stand here with you
and not be moved by you
would you tell me
how could it be
any better than this

How did I end up here?
Closer to nowhere and in the middle of nothing
And I am one step back from where I was
Spinning in circles gets old after a while
You say if I fall I will fall straight into your arms
Should I trip over my feet
And if I start to slip I will slip right onto my knees
Into the center of your hands

Cause maybe someday I can learn to trust you

Seems my own arrogance has knocked me off my feet again
When you know I'm crawling to you as fast as I can
First teach me to walk
Then I'll learn to dance for you
Like an honest clumsy clown
Tripping along the way
Cause I am reaching for you
But my arms are long enough
And I am running for you
If I could go a little faster
And I am crying to you
But I can't hear my own voice

find me here
speak to me
i want to feel you
i need to hear you
you are the light
that is leading me
to the place where
i find peace again
you are the strength
that keeps me walking
you are the hope
that keeps me trusting
you are the life to my soul
you are my purpose
you are everything
and how can i
stand here with you
and not be moved by you
would you tell me
how could it be
any better than this

I can't meet
Losing sleep over this
No I can't
And now I cannot stop pacing
Give me a few hours
I'll have this all sorted out
If my mind would just stop racing

Cause I cannot stand still
I can be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

This is over my head
But underneath my feet
Cause by tomoroow morning I'll have this thing beat
And everything will be back to the way that it was

You can be right
And I'll be real
Oh, and it still won't be a pain
That you will have to feel
Cause I don't need your approval
To find my worth

I'm trapped inside of my own mind
Afraid to open my eyes cause of what I'd find and I
Don't wanna live like this anymore

now.. i'm falling even more in love with you

In the still of the night it shines so clear
And the comfort of finding it here
And as I walk the night gets colder
And I know that I don't know
And it seems as I get older
My life goes over, In the winds of change

I guess nothing turned out like I planned
Everything's sure to fall out of hand
And it takes a lot to find it
And it takes a lot I know
To believe that there is meaning

TAKE THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD

TOO TIRED TO FOLD MY HANDS

AND THROW THEM AT YOUR FEET

LET ME STAY HERE FOR AWHILE

I DON'T WANT TO GO

THERE'S NOWHERE ELSE TO GO AWAY FOR ME

(CHORUS)

SO TAKE THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD 

OFF OF ME FOR AWHILE

BE MY PEACE

BE MY LIGHT

BE TO ME THE HIDING PLACE TONIGHT

YOU TAKE AWAY EVERYTHING I HAVE KNOWN

EVERYTHING I CAN NOT HAVE

Take your medicine and swallow it down
Drown your sorrows in a bowl of pain now
You've got the confidence You have the smile
Fool everybody even yourself for awhile

(chorus)
So take your suffering and be done with you
I am sorry I can't come there with you
So pack your pain in a suitcase full of lies
I guess this is where we say goodbye

Oh I'm so complicated I was so torn

He sighs and looks in the mirror
He can't tell anymore
Who he really is and who they believe him to be
And he sighs and walks in a thin line
Between what is and what could be
He's getting closer
To something he can't understand

Cause there's a crack in his plastic crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder
And there was nothing there
And now it's a long way down

Maybe I'm not as smart as I thought
As I come back down
Entertain the sun, Beg it to go on
Don't leave me all alone down here
'Cause I don't have a doubt
That I am without, A way out of this

And I climb, This wasted time
I've been in, And I find
I change my mind, Again you win

Can you take the ashes that I've burned
At your expense
'Cause I can't tell you why, All the things that I
